Hey all, It's been a while since I've been on, but I had an issue come up with my rear window. The weather stripping that runs along the bottom of the window came off and there doesn't appear to be any simple way to replace it. The window still works fine, but I'm worried about water leaking in. I wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue or a way to replace the weather stripping?

If you were lucky enough to recover it just glue it back. Gorilla or similar is what I have heard others use. FYI, water is going in there anyway, always has, just like the door glasses. There are drains in the bottom.
 






I was able to save the strip before it completely fell off. I'll try and glue it back. I figured the water was leaking out since I couldn't hear any water sloshing around inside.
 






Several folks have had them come loose or completely fall off. One member lost his and I had a badly damaged window assembly so I told him he could have the piece off of it he needed. There was NO WAY that thing was coming off of my junk window. I cut that whole section out and sent it to him so he could try.......
 






Yeah, mine was halfway off and I was gonna leave it alone till I could really get a good look at it since I was at school, but then it started leaving marks on my window every time I would use it so I pulled it off completely.
